what is the offset on those wheels? If it's too low then you might rub with a slight drop who knows... tire size is right for your car.

Those are the right size 15" tires (195/55-15 will also work).

The wheel size has nothing to do with when you rub. The tire size does.

Get the tire size that's right for your car, and the tires shouldn't rub.
